Gold Foil Summoners Keep Falling, But One is Holding Relatively Strong
Modern Gold Foil Summoners continue their slump, but one summoner is still a standout.
None of this article is financial/investment/legal advice, it contains a strategic valuation analysis of speculative assets that can be subject to market fluctuations. You are suggested to seek out a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) for all investments and the author is not an RIA. Splinterlands' Terms of Service identifies Splinterlands/Steem Monsters as not being an Investment Company. As defined by the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Steem Monsters (the parent company of Splinterlands) and the Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) that was published by Steem Monsters can be argued to rise to the definition of being classified as Financial Institutions in the United States. This is a duty to warn and inform given that the actions to be described regard the valuation of assets and speculation of events to take place.
Gold Foil cards are where the true value is in the Splinterlands card market. These cards offer greater scarcity in the age of overprinting than the Regular Foil cards, which is why they deserve the greater focus and recognition. Creating a completely Gold Foil collection is a challenge, but the lower prices that are being found today are making things a bit easier. Some summoners have fallen considerably in value and one particular summoner has found a way to hold its value and be a surprise compared to when it was released.
All Time Low: Thaddius Brood
The $6 mark was cracked and now it is headed possibly toward $5. This was quick. How rough are things with Gold Foil Thaddius Brood's price? The highest bid is $1.50.
The next resistance zone is $7-$7.25, but the formation of resistance around $6 is forming.
All Time Low: Tarsa
Tarsa's woes continue as it will eventually test $5, it seems inevitable.
The resistance zone between $5.89-$6 is notable because this is what Thaddius Brood owners and prospective buyers can possibly expect in a few days. It does seem like Tarsa is a few days ahead in the decline than Thaddius Brood. Tarsa is not as bearish on the highest Bid price, $4.806, but it still is under $5. Tarsa would join General Sloan with this unfortunate distinction should it happen.
Tarsa would have a significant upward movement if it can crack through the $7.50-$7.75 resistance zone because it would be easy sailing to $10.25. This card is not there yet at all.
All-Time Low: Fernheart
Here's the upshot: Fernheart's second lowest card in the market per card is $22.669. There you go, a 25.93% return on investment just by reading this article and noticing that Gold Foil Fernheart is at All-Time Lows.
You're welcome.
All-Time Low: Sthispa
Remember the hype around Sthispa? It is not even the second highest priced summoner on the secondary market within Riftwatchers. Fernheart is worth more, which is not terribly surprising.
There's resistance in the $17 price band, but if it breaks this it is moving upward to $20 quite easily on a per card basis.
Holding Strong: Ilthain
Ilthain and Fernheart were disrespected upon release, but now are the two most valued Gold Foil Riftwatchers summoners. Ilthain has not experienced the lows that fellow Riftwatchers summoners have experienced.
Ilthain hit All-Time Lows YESTERDAY, but rebounded quickly today by 26.3%.
Now the price has returned to that base line again after finally cracking through. Is the downward breakout over already? It's possible, but time will tell here.
